I have an Excel spreadsheet with all of the topics that I’ve ever covered on this channel and this video is the 24th time I’ve talked about boss fights in one form or another which both goes to show the incredible amount of variety in how bosses are handled and also how easy it is to make a video about them. Definitely easier than making a 16-minute video about horror games that no one watched.

  1. You say something like the Old monk hasn't happened in any other Souls games but the Mirror Knight in Dark Souls II summons a player and in Dark Souls III's Ringed City DLC has a covenant that is levelled up by deafening other players as the Spear of the Church boss.

  2. Regarding the number of bosses ever made, I'd say it hasn't reached the millions quite yet. It's close to a million, though, for sure. In the hundreds of thousands area, but not the 1M yet.

  3. Ending E from Drakengard might be (very) weird, but it's far from being "a joke that no one could take seriously".
    I didn't even played the game and was fascinated by that ending.

  4. "RPGs haven't undergone major changes". Look at FF7 to FF7 remake. Tactical with lots of choices to "Dodge and hit A a lot!" to be fair there was a log of hitting A in the original. Maybe he has a point.

  5. since you brought up Killer7, I'dd like tomention its VERY strange boss fights, both in terms of premise and mechanics

    The weird ass button mashing shoot off aganst the random assassin in the second level.

    Cloudman's boss fight where you have to run through a bunch of ambulance's and sneak behind the boss so you cna shoot his afro that's floating behind him to kill him in one shot (before he kills YOU in one shot)

    The one on one series of duels against the power rangers parodies who each act as a direct copy of the playable characters by using the same weapons, even down to one of them sitting in a wheelchair t match the wheelchair bound leader!

    and, finally, Greg Nightmare, the final boss, a dude who's hanging from a cieling and to be be beaten you must shoot his pants down, shoot his groin until he explodes and then let his shadows kill all your characters until you can play as the one who can use the gun to kill them.

  6. I will still utter at my last breath that the giant living steak in Color Splash is one of the most bizarre bosses ever. Seriously, who would've expect Mario can be fighting THAT if he goes to an area of a kitchen? Or that it's weakness is lemon juice?

  7. Seeing the final entry reminded me of something.

    In 2017, Yoko Taro expressed his desire to make an adult movie.

    … Porn with a rhythm section!… Wait, technically that's most porn… damn… never mind… Wait, MUSICAL porn rhythm section!

  8. wasn't there that mirror knight/looking glass knight in dark souls 2? if i remember right he summons a NPC about half way through the fight or if a play put their sign down just outside the boss room he'll summon that player

  9. Yeah, gonna go ahead and google that dancing 2B bit for research, as I'm guessing it's a model used in VR Chat.

    Look, I don't wanna say a NSFW guess and possibly get Will in trouble, and I don't know if VR Chat has jiggle physics, but it's what I'm going with.

  10. The thing about ending E in Drakengard is that it's like 2 and a half minutes and it's possible without a guide. Drakengard 3 on the other hand, fuck that noise, 7 minutes straight of playing a rhythm game PERFECTLY whilst the camera is fucking you over. Sometimes I ask myself how I even had the patience to 100% both Drakengard and Drakengard 3
